In Ghost Land, the average income tax rate is 71%. :D

Basically the government hands everyone $73,000 per year (almost complete income equality and very low economic freedom), then asks for $52,000 of it back at the end of the year. Mwahahaha :D

Money implies poverty

The interstellar republic is a post-scarcity economy and the government of Minds is capable of acquiring and manufacturing everything they need to perform their functions without the need for such a thing as taxation.

4.6% for poorest (<10,000), 99.3% for richest (>1,000,000,000). Don't trust nation states stats :)

This is what I'd like to have in real life or my personal utopian society: everyone having at least enough money for what they need with a bit left over for doing what they want with it, low tax rates, and low ability for people to collect welfare for no reason and effectively mooch off the government. I'd like to see a moderate amount of income equality, too: not so much it's complete socialism or communism, but enough that we don't have someone rolling around naked in their piles of gold and someone else being unable to afford food for themselves.

As you can tell, Ghost Land is in no way representative of my real-world views; it represents pretty much everything I wouldn't want.

It varies.

Income tax is progressive and ranges from 0% (although even the lowest income earners will earn enough money where some of their income is placed in a taxable bracket) to 40%, with plans to increase the top tax bracket to 60% by 2030.

The corporate tax rate is set at 35%.

Payroll tax is set at 30%

VAT is set between 6% and 15%, depending on the item, with essential items having no tax placed upon them.

Insufficient OP, iLock. This would be best just in your factbook or the Miscellaneous Worldbuilding Thread; either expand your OP if you re-create, post again in the MWBT, or post it in your factbook.
